More Information:

Why Fairypunk? Because I love fairies, elves, dark mages, warriors and all the clothing and accoutrements that make them the characters they are. But I also love steampunk. It's dark, it's modern, it's wearable, it's the mortal Seelie/Unseelie in fashion. But really? Because the bold prints of fantasy and the dark solids of steampunk work together in my head. So from my head, to my sewing machine, to you. FAIRYPUNK, y'all.

Flat Dyeing Tute! And Stuff. Comments (4)

So, not only do I totally love dyeing, I love knowing that what I’ve dyed will be used. Or worn. Or played with. It’s awesome. What’s also awesome is sharing; … [View Details]
